Going Home

Your physician determines what day you are ready to go home. Discharge time is 11:00am. Your nurse will help you get ready and will take you and your baby to your car. Remember, each baby needs to ride home in an infant car seat.

If you haven’t already done so, please remember to call your health insurance company as soon as possible to add your new infant to your insurance policy.

Child Seat InspectionsNot sure how to install your infant car seat? Would you like someone to take a look to be sure that you have installed your seat correctly? Riverside Regional Medical Center offers free Child Safety Seat Inspections and Installations on the third Thursday of every month or by appointment.

Getting Back in ShapeRemember to take good care of yourself as well as baby. Follow your physician’s recommendations on nutrition, activity and rest. Riverside Wellness and Fitness Center offers personal Nutrition Counseling as well as Dyna-Mom exercise classes for new mothers and their infants.
